  Case: ASD Children with IEP plans
Mrs. Summer's class is filled with ASD and ESE students, each with there own IEP plan. One student, when faced with a task he is unwilling to do, immediately starts acting out. His behavior then distracts the other students from their work and in turn other kids start making inappropriate noises and behaviors. The teacher aide then takes the boy from the class to start his calm down regiment. At what point is taking the boy from the classroom hindering his own ability to learn?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would try and figure out his triggers. We know that when faced with a task he does not want to do, he acts out. Do these situations have anything in common? Is it a subject area or possibly the teachers approach. It is always a good idea to reflect and realize that sometimes it is us as teachers and we need to make a change somewhere.
